Nutritional Procrastination by Leanne Ely, C.N.C.Procrastination comes in many forms. We talk about a very personal form
of procrastination in our new book, Body Clutter (go to www.flylady. You know what I’m talking about. You bargain with yourself that you’re going to start eating healthier, you even buy a boatload of fresh produce to seal the deal and then, “just this once” you decide you’re too tired to cook, you’d rather eat out so you don’t have to deal with picky kids and if you eat off the .99 menu, it’s really not too expensive. Next thing you know, you’re suffering from a full blown case of Nutritional Procrastination. The good green stuff sitting in the produce bin of your refrigerator becomes a drawer full of green sludge, your jeans are too tight and your face looks puffy. And yet you still keep procrastinating about eating healthy…why? Time for an intervention! I don’t have to give you all the gory details on obesity, heart conditions, cancer and diseases implicated by poor nutrition. You know it! It’s time to stop living in the fast food lane and get a reality check—you need real food to feed real people, yourself included. Real food is easily identifiable. It comes with a minimum of packaging—if any, you know what it is at first glance without a TV commercial selling you on it (an apple, for example) and you know too, that not only does it taste good, it’s good for you too! So this week, try to add two things healthy foods to your nutritional arsenal and give Nutritional Procrastination the heave ho! Baby step your way to better nutrition and add an apple to your snack list a few times this week. Throw a salad on the table at dinner time, too (skip the Iceberg lettuce—it’s just about devoid of any nutrition) and watch how much better you feel when you love your body with good food.
